With Skill And Determination

taught well in their youth
prospects and outcomes fruitful
grace in achievement

I See The Future

Inspired by What do you see #266

hungering to learn
gains a foundation of knowledge
breeds person’s success

But Do We Listen

wild current affairs
past echoes to the future
imbued with wisdom

Creating Options

Inspired by What do you see #263

inquisitiveness
learns of possibilities
her future awaits

Compendious

thinking critically requires information
information requires facts
facts require accuracy
accuracy requires thinking critically

Erudition

Inspired by What do you see #241

with eyes wide open
consuming knowledge daily
how we humans learn

With Each Step

Inspired by What do you see #235

at a tender age
we’re not yet geared
to think we inhabit a greater space

we plod along
open to new experiences
and growth opportunities

but when greatness is felt
finally
we look as tall as we project

In Search

i am
who
am i

existence doesn’t guarantee answers

many strive hard
all of their days

many don’t
and waste away

the journeys we take
are varied and unique

just as we are

Life Is Deaf

Redux

Crying out in an I Don’t Care World.
The answer is silence. Crickets…

It doesn’t pay attention; life continues.

Understand that. Know it.
Try not to feel hurt by it.
Keep moving… one foot in front of the other.

Strength can come again. Just let it.
Don’t let the indifference of life determine if you’ll accept it.

Keep speaking despite the obvious disability of existence.
The beauty comes when you hear the truth you need.

In reality, life is not the teacher.
But you must be a willing student.

Damaged

Not one of us isn’t screwed up.
The only difference is how many scars life left inside us.
